Is Uniqlo S-000 similar fit to H&M Drain or is it close to H&M Sliq?

Question - REEFER JACKETS/ PEA COATS

Does anyone know of a good, black pea coat/reefer? I saw a Jaeger one about 12 months ago which was pretty nice. This is what i'm after:

The cut, especially collar, is a little more elegant on this one than most generic versions i've seen.

Thanks a lot.

I have a pair of PBJ xx-005s that I"ve been wearing for the past 6 months, and I was wondering if it's too late to get them hemmed about 2 inches? Will hemming them after 6 months of wear mess up my fades or anything?

No.



Hmmm, if you plan to have them hemmed past the knees... perhaps.

I need a jean reccomendation:

I am 5' 9" 146lbs, with a 29'waist, and wear a 29X30 in the 527's.
I have switched from loose, baggy, light colored jeans to dark Levis 527 jeans.
I dont like straight cut or super slim jeans, and normally opt for the bootcut. I like the fit of the 527's everywhere except the baggy ass.
Can you make some recomendations on some quality jeans that would fit like the 527's with less material in the seat??? I would like to spend as little a possible, but realize quality jeans are 100-200$.
I live in NCali and am close enough to the bay area.

Well, if you're okay with branded jeans with pocket designs, you could probably find a Nordstrom Rack and get yourself a pair of bootcut 7 for all mankind jeans or maybe Joe's Jeans for under $100. I prefer unadorned jeans though, so Joe's Jeans would be easier on the eyes for me. They have lots of room in the butt, but from what I know, they don't get very baggy at all.

Are there any other suggestions you might want? I know other brands too, but they're probably more expensive than you'd like.

Anybody know how the APC hooded jacket fits (I'd link, but the site is all flash-based and ****), or how APC sizes in general? I think I's usually be looking for a small, but they've only got mediums in stock.

Edit: Hmm, I couldn't find it on the North America version of their site, and apparently they don't ship to the U.S. from the European version. Guess it just wasn't meant to be.

Does anyone have shoulder and chest measurements for size 36 and size 38 Sterlingwear peacoats? Trying to figure out which size would come closest to measuring 18"-18.5" across the shoulders and 42" or so around the chest.

I'm looking for a Peacoat (I know, a little early), and I love the way the Inapt Peacoat fits. Only problem is I have a 43" chest, 17" arms, and a 32" waist so I don't think there's any chance of that even coming close to fitting me. With my dimensions what would be my best bet for a peacoat that fits closely to the Inapt peacoat? Thankssss
